“Then everyone suffered.”

“Ok.”

When I heard that today’s test was over, I stretched out and relaxed my sulky body. In addition to my team’s game, I had to watch the other team’s exams forcibly, but honestly, this was more difficult than the exam.

Next to me, I stop by the cafe for a while while watching the game, and I’m cleaning up the waste of drinks and snacks I bought, but the kids sneak up on me and notice me.

“I-I’ll clean it up.”

“I brought a garbage bag here.”

“……okay.”

While accepting the favor, I felt a sense of shame. Should I say that I feel like extorting money for scaring children?

‘Sweet, I should have taken it a little easier.’

I felt like I had suddenly emerged as a person of interest because of my excessive performance, but what can I do? However, if you fail the exam, you may be expelled for poor grades.

“The way they treat the kids has changed drastically.”

“Damn, that’s great.”

Tana and Eve, who were cleaning up the garbage next to each other, also help out one word at a time. In particular, it was evident from my eyes that the professors in each class had evaluated me quite well.

“You saw the Phenyl gang beating them all by themselves. Why are you so surprised?”

“That and this are different. There’s Hayun and Ares, and there’s a bag of luggage behind Mei.”

“Joe, I was a little envious.”

“Is not it? Hey, if you bring Daniel, you can take the bus right away.”

“It wasn’t that I was envious.”

Eve kept her mouth shut as she dragged on behind her back, but didn’t bother to say more. Today was the end of the exam, so I was thinking about what to do since there was still time left in the middle.

From behind the kids, I could see them walking towards Rin-in at a brisk pace.

Since we were sitting in the same class watching the game, it seems that we have been looking for opportunities all this time.

“Since there is still time, shall we go downtown by ourselves? There’s a delicious dessert shop there these days…”

“I’m going to my room!”

“What? Hey where are you going!”

“All right, Daniel?”

Just turn around and run.

Contact with Lin should be kept to a minimum.

Only then will we be able to know exactly how she became the master of the army. I shouldn’t interrupt the set flow for nothing.

‘You’re going to be tenacious like that in the beginning.’

Maybe later on, I’ll give up and start treating me as someone I don’t have.

“Thank you for today…!”

“Move!”

“Cow!”

Mei squeaks in the way and immediately pushes it away. Mei’s mournful cry was heard from behind, but she ignored it.

“Wow.”

Looking back, Rin is now running at full speed. Unlike me, who was in the first order, Rin was almost in the last order, but he seems to have more stamina.

“It’s really scary.”

The lifeless look in the eyes was terrifying, and I even felt fear. It was similar to when I stabbed my heart in the forest of the demon realm wearing black armor.

“Woo-wook.”

When I thought that, I unconsciously ran my hand over my chest to check if there was a hole in it.

After entering the dormitory, I climbed two or three stairs at a time, went straight into my room, locked the door, and heard Rin’s footsteps following me in the hallway.

“……”

It is at the door.

A cold sweat was flowing, but I stopped breathing, and I heard Rin slowly turning, and I exhaled with a sigh.

“Something seems to have changed a lot from the Rin I knew.”

Obviously, in my past life, in my memory, Rin was a child with a graceful, always kind, approachable smile on her lips.

That’s why she was kind to me, who was timid, so I naturally liked her.

But now I feel like I’m obsessed with something. Am I the only one who didn’t notice at the time?

“Then how do you talk now?”

I was so tired that I wanted to take a nap, so I collapsed on the bed and closed my eyes. I fell into a deeper sleep than I expected, but I woke up about 6 hours later.

“Turn it off.”

The bright outside was already dark, and my stomach was fluctuating because I was hungry, but since the restaurant was already closed, I had to eat dessert at the cafe for dinner.

‘I don’t like that.’

I wanted to make something, but I didn’t have the ingredients, so I went out to go downtown for a while. I was startled as I opened the door, wondering if Rin was waiting, but fortunately that wasn’t the case.

“I want to eat a dish with soup. Do you still have a house?”

If that doesn’t work out, I’m going to go to a bar and order some soup to eat, but when I’m on my way, I see a black-haired, short-haired female student swinging a sword in the playground.

“Hayoon?”

Hayoon, who had lost to me in today’s exam, was wielding her sword while contemplating something.

“Is he swinging his sword or is he thinking?”

I can’t concentrate while swinging the sword, so it doesn’t seem very helpful for training. My body is too tired to think that way.

“Still, the more I look at it, the more amazing it is.”

It seemed like he couldn’t do either of these things, but honestly, I approached her out of curiosity.

Nothing but swordsmanship!

Her sword was very interesting because I had never seen a swordsmanship used by a warrior from the east, not a swordsmanship used by knights.

‘Especially wielding that thin blade.’

A sword focused on cutting rather than stabbing. I heard that it was called a sword, but it had its own charm, so I had a desire to learn it at least once.

Of course, it wasn’t that I was changing my method right now, but I was curious about how practical that thing was, which looked more like a dance than a swordsmanship.

“Are you working hard?”

If it were me in the past, the act of talking to a female student alone in the middle of the night would have been nothing short of torture, but I am different now.

If I had to judge it based on the atmosphere, it would be like the kids practicing and the man came over and said, “Oh, you can’t do that!”

Aren’t they kids anyway?

If I don’t have feelings to distance myself, I don’t have to back down or hesitate.

“Daniel…McLean.”

In my own way, I had made a pie that Ares liked in the cooking practice room the other day, so I thought there wouldn’t be much resistance.

“……”

“what?”

Tears began to flow from Hayoon’s expressionless expression, which did not seem to contain much emotion.

Here is a really sad girl.

Both of my parents passed away.

They say it was an accident, but the girl is convinced that the assassination was led by her uncle in order to win the family’s power struggle.

What is left of her is her uncle, who is eating herself or using it as a useful tool.

And it was only a book about Eastern Swordsmanship that my mother left behind.

Fortunately, the girl had a natural talent for swordsmanship.

The family also noticed this and sent him to the Aeos Academy to further train his swordsmanship and gave him an order to catch the eyes of the noble children.

So far it was understandable.

yes, good

Using swordsmanship, the only weapon that could survive in the family, he tried to broaden his connections as much as possible and gain the power to reveal the truth about the deaths of his father and mother.

Regular reports were also carried out.

But one day, the uncle asked the girl a strange question.

‘Do you know a boy named Ares?’

Of course I know.

A handsome blond boy who was transferred to the 3rd grade.

We were in the same class as B, and in the first test, winning Arni Duratan, who had always been defeated, was something to be highly valued, and he was thinking that he would like to compete with a sword someday.

But before he could ask why his uncle, who spoke of his bloodline and family, asked a commoner like Ares, he said to Hayun with a greedy smile.

‘Make the man yours.’

For a moment, it felt as if he had been hit in the head with a hammer.

What the hell does this mean?

However, his uncle continued to violently imprison Ha-yun.

‘Whether you flirt with a sword you’re good at, show off your half-skinned appearance, or use that poor body. Bring the man with you anyway.’

‘It’s telling you to lean on the low blood that runs through you, just like your mother did to my sister.’

The regular report ended like that.

Although Hayun harbors humiliating feelings, she has no choice but to court Ares.

It was really funny.

Watching the countless beauties surrounding a man named Ares and looking at himself gazing at him awkwardly, I felt so pathetic that tears were about to flow.

Is it because of that?

‘Recently, my sword has become dull.’

I heard bitter criticism from Arni Duratan, who had a rivalry, and I was defeated in an ugly way in today’s second test without even showing my skills.

After the test was over, I swung my sword for hours until the sun went down to control my emotions.

However, no matter how much she wielded it, the heavy burden given to the 18-year-old girl did not diminish, and the waves of emotion intensified.

“Are you working hard?”

Is it because of that?

“Daniel…McLean.”

The water that had been trying hard to lock was released even with a small shock.
